About this listen
Before gasoline ruled the roads, a three-way war was raging beneath the hood.Revolutions on Wheels is the explosive, hilarious, and eye-opening history of the battle between steam, electric, and gasoline powerthree rival technologies fighting for control of the early automobile age.Long before Detroit crowned the combustion engine king, inventors, engineers, and dreamers built machines powered by fire, batteries, boiler pressure, wood gas, compressed air, even sunlight. Some were brilliant. Some were disastrous. Some nearly changed everything.Inside this wildly entertaining book, youll discover:The elegant electric cars of the 1880s1910s that looked like early TeslasThe raw power of steam carsfast, smooth, but always one bad valve away from catastropheThe gasoline upstarts that were loud, smelly, unreliable until Ford weaponized mass productionThe outrageous inventions that almost reshaped historygyro cars, flywheel cars, air engines, solar tricycles, turbine carsThe battery wars, transmission battles, cooling crises, and fuel disasters that shaped the early industryThe infrastructure coup that gave gasoline a permanent advantageWhy the EV vs. gas vs. hybrid debate today is just history repeating itselfTold with cinematic storytelling, humor, and real historical drama, Revolutions on Wheels brings to life the forgotten era when the future of transportation was still up for grabsand everything was on the table.If you love history, innovation, engineering, or the bizarre inventions people built before the world made up its mind, this book is for you.Perfect for fans of:How We Got to Now, The Innovators, The Wright Brothers, Car!, and quirky science/tech histories.The war between steam, electric, and gasoline shaped a century.Now youll finally hear the story.©2025 Kevin L.
